For The Snazzy Sophisticate: Nice

French meet Riviera. Nestled on the southeast coast by the Mediterranean Sea's neon-blue waters, Nice is a magical scene, to say the least. A few highlights include the Musée Museum, home to a score of works by Matisse, the lively Old Town of Vieux Nice, filled with cobblestone streets, and the incomparable Promenade des Anglais seafront. Of course, you're only a short jaunt away, by land or shore, to Cannes, Saint Tropez, and more neighboring gems!
